Quantitative data from the questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Logistic regression model for factors associated with osteopathic referrals and multiple linear regression analyses for the number of correct answers about general osteopathic practice parameters were performed.

Osteopathic referral was positively associated with having a professional relationship odds ratio [OR] 4. Alcohol and drug use is a serious health problem for many indigenous populations across Canada , including Inuit. The literature on substance use in these populations is too sparse to devise public health interventions. The present article portrays alcohol and drug use among Inuit living in Nunavik Northern Quebec between the s and s, and identifies socio-demographic characteristics related to substance use.

Statistical comparisons were made of substance use variables in the 2 samples. Alcohol and drug use among Inuit increased significantly between and , particularly among young adults. Alcohol users consumed significantly more alcohol per drinking episode than other Canadians in both time periods. Considerable cannabis use was widespread. As in other populations from North America, this study profiles the increase in substance use among Inuit from Nunavik in the first part of the last 20 years.

We observed distinct substance use patterns among them in comparison to other Canadians. Such findings, if replicated in the coming years, emphasize the need for major, culturally-relevant public health interventions in this population.

This rise eroded adjacent sandstone cliffs, which contributed a significant sediment supply to the littoral drift and beaches. Some low-lying coasts in the archipelago All rights reserved Socio-medical determinants of hospital utilization in Quebec , Canada , The relationship between ambulatory physician use and hospitalization was studied using aggregate data in the Province of Quebec , Canada. The analysis showed that the introduction of health insurance covering physician services had a negligible influence on hospitalization.

The average length of short-term hospital stays was determined by the proportion of aged population, the proportion of English speaking persons, and the prior level of hospitalization in the medical market areas. Overall, hospital discharge rates remained very constant during the period of six years There were, however, reductions in hospitalization for infectious diseases, diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs, respiratory diseases, and diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, and increases in the hospitalization rates for neoplasms, circulatory system disorders, musculoskeletal conditions, congenital anomalies, and perinatal morbidity and mortality.

Earthquake source parameter and focal mechanism estimates for the Western Quebec Seismic Zone in eastern Canada. Previous studies have associated seismicity in the area to the reactivation of Early Paleozoic normal faults within a failed Iapetan rift arm, or strength contrasts between mafic intrusions and felsic rocks due to the Mesozoic track of the Great Meteor hotspot. A good understanding of seismicity and its relation to pre-existing structures requires information about event source properties, such as static stress drop and fault plane orientation, which can be constrained via spectral analysis and focal mechanism solutions.

We then determine corner frequency and seismic moment values by fitting S-wave spectra on transverse components at all stations for 35 events MN 2. We select event pairs with highly similar waveforms, proximal hypocenters, and magnitudes differing by units. Our preliminary results using single-station spectra show corner frequencies of 15 to 40 Hz and stress drop values between 7 and MPa, typical of intraplate seismicity. Last, we solve focal mechanism solutions of 35 events with impulsive P-wave arrivals at a minimum of 8 stations using the hybridMT moment tensor inversion algorithm.

Our preliminary results suggest predominantly thrust faulting mechanisms, and at times oblique thrust faulting. The P-axis trend of the focal mechanism solutions suggests a principal stress orientation of NE-SW, which is consistent with that derived from focal mechanisms of earthquakes prior to We plan to fit the event pair spectral ratios to correct for attenuation. Full Text Available This article presents a synthesis of different research projects that have been carried out inthe province of Quebec , Canada over the past 20 years concerning the representations and practices ofelementary teachers regarding the relative importance given to subject matter and the use ofinterdisciplinarity in their teaching practice.

The first section will explain the context of the Quebecschool system on a socio-historical and political level and review the emergence of the concept ofinterdisciplinarity in Quebec. The second section will present succinctly the different research projectsthat have been conducted since and the conceptual framework they were based on. The thirdsection will consider the main results of the various research projects from two angles: first, therepresentations and practices of the teachers regarding interdisciplinarity; secondly, the relativeimportance and role that the teachers give to interdisciplinarity.

In the conclusion, we will highlightamong other things the central position teachers give to the role of socialization and their minimalconsideration for the teaching of disciplinary knowledge. The changing epidemiology of meningococcal disease in Quebec , Canada , potential implications of emergence of new strains. Serogroup C IMD almost disappeared following the implementation of universal childhood immunization with monovalent C conjugate vaccines in This clonal complex was first introduced in adolescent and young adults, then spread to other age groups.

Serogroup C has been virtually eliminated. In recent years, most cases have been caused by the serogroup B ST clonal complex. Although overall burden of IMD is low, the use of a vaccine with potential broad-spectrum coverage could further reduce the burden of disease. Acceptability, feasibility and cost-effectiveness studies coupled with ongoing clinical and molecular surveillance are necessary in.

Rousseau, Alain N. Water quality has become a matter of increasing concern over the past four decades as a result of the intensification of agriculture, and more particularly so in Canada where agriculture has evolved into the largest non-point source of surface water pollution. The Canadian WEBs project Watershed Evaluation of Beneficial Management Practices, BMPs was initiated in order to determine the efficiency of BMPs in improving the surface water quality of rural catchments, and the economic aspects related to their implementation on the same scale. Four BMPs were analysed: 1 vegetated riparian buffer strips, 2 precision slurry application, 3 transition of all cereal and corn fields to grassland grassland conversion , and 4 no-tillage on corn fields.

Simulations suggest that riparian buffer strips and grassland conversion are more effective in terms of phosphorus, nitrogen and sediment load reduction than precision slurry application and no-tillage on corn fields. The results furthermore indicate the need for a more profound understanding of sediment dynamics in streams and on riparian buffer strips. Estimating the mercury exposure dose in a population of migratory bird hunters in the St. Lawrence River region, Quebec , Canada. Lawrence River hunters Quebec , Canada are exposed to the pollutants, especially mercury, that contaminate birds and fish.

However, the health risks of this have remained unclear because of a lack of information about the hunters' duck, geese, and sportfish consumption habits. A nutritional survey was set up to characterize waterfowl and sportfish consumption in St. Lawrence River duck hunters and to estimate their daily exposure to mercury. During the winter of , hunters selected from the Canadian Wildlife Service database completed a self-administered questionnaire. Daily exposure to contaminants was measured using data from the Canadian Wildlife Service waterfowl and available data on St.

Lawrence River sportfish. The annual average consumption was 7.

The daily exposure to mercury related to waterfowl consumption was below the Canadian tolerable daily intake TDI of 0. The daily mercury intake associated with fish consumption was greater than the TDI in 2 duck hunters.

The daily exposure to mercury was higher than the TDI in 4 participants when both waterfowl and fish consumption were combined. Our results suggest that fish consumption especially freshwater fish represents the main source of exposure to pollutants in duck hunters.

Surveillance of social and geographic inequalities in housing-related issues: the case of the Eastern Townships, Quebec Canada. Even though health inequalities are conditioned by many aspects of the environment, much of the existing research focuses on the social environment. This emphasis has the effect to neglect other environmental aspects such as its physical dimension. The physical environment, which is linked to housing conditions, may contribute to the uneven distribution of health.

In this study, we examined 19 housing-related issues among a representative sample of 2, adults residing in a Quebec Canada health region characterized by a mix of rural, semi-rural, and urban areas. The distribution of these issues was examined according to socioeconomic and geographic indicators of social position.

Summary measures of inequalities were assessed. Our results showed that the prevalence of nearly all housing-related issues was higher among low-income households compared to more affluent ones. Highly educated individuals showed better housing conditions, whereas different issues tended to cluster in deprived or densely populated areas. To conclude, we observed steep gradients between social class and poor housing conditions.

This may explain a substantial part of health inequality on the regional scale. The surveillance of housing-related issues is therefore essential to properly inform and mobilize local stakeholders and to develop interventions that target vulnerable groups on this level.

Air temperature, soil temperature, wind speed and direction, July The decline of official language minorities in Quebec and English Canada. The total historical set of national data on ethnicity, mother tongue, knowledge of official languages and home language [is first presented]. The year stability showing French at around 30 percent of the national total is a function of compensating factors including high French fertility and high English immigration.

During the s both of these demographic supports disappeared and thus mobility across linguistic lines has become a particularly sensitive issue. For instance, there was one French child to every nine in and one to every twenty-one children in While the English of Quebec were once represented in various parts of the province, their strength is now largely limited to the Montreal metropolitan area which includes 76 percent of the English mother tongue group.
